A novel deep learning network trained on synchrotron imaging data automates accurate inner ear segmentation in clinical CT, surpassing expert performance and establishing a new standard for preoperative planning.
This prospective Chinese cohort study found that airway mucus plugs on chest CT are linked to increased risk of exacerbations and COPD development, even in individuals with preserved spirometry, highlighting their prognostic value in early
SPIROMICS study demonstrates that progression of CT-detected emphysema subtypes over one year independently predicts accelerated FEV₁ decline, offering valuable intermediate endpoints for COPD clinical trials.
The FUSION randomized trial demonstrates that adding CT-derived FFR to coronary CTA significantly reduces unnecessary invasive angiographies without affecting clinical outcomes, cost, or quality of life in stable CAD patients with intermedi
The InEurHeart trial demonstrates that computed tomography-guided ventricular tachycardia ablation significantly reduces procedure duration while maintaining safety and efficacy compared to conventional methods in patients with ischemic car
CT-derived pulmonary vascular metrics, especially the small-artery to total arterial volume ratio, identify severe pulmonary hypertension in chronic lung disease, with distinct vascular remodeling patterns in COPD and fibrosing ILD.
A multi-institutional AI model identified pre-diagnostic pancreatic cancer on routine CT with meaningful lead time, higher sensitivity than radiologists, longitudinal stability, and externally validated specificity in a low-prevalence setti
A multicenter study shows that observation with deferred CT decision-making significantly reduces CT use in children with blunt abdominal trauma, particularly in cases with intermediate clinician suspicion, without increasing missed injurie
A Medicare claims analysis found that 15% of balloon sinus dilation (BSD) procedures lacked a CT within one year; 31.8% of otolaryngologists were outliers, with a small subset accounting for the majority of missed imaging—highlighting gaps
A Medicare claims study of 19,692 balloon sinus dilations found 15% lacked a CT within one year; 31.8% of otolaryngologists were outliers, with a small group accounting for most missed imaging, highlighting gaps in adherence to preoperative
This Danish cohort study demonstrates that increased epicardial adipose tissue volume independently elevates the risk of new-onset atrial fibrillation, highlighting the importance of fat distribution beyond BMI in cardiovascular risk assess
